Additional Location Information

There are many neighborhoods around Seattle that were little towns before becoming part of greater Seattle. Ballard is one of these and so, it has a vibrant little downtown area that includes the Ballard Avenue Historic District listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Historically Ballard was a fishing village and still has many inhabitants of Nordic ancestry. Ballard is a great place to navigate from as you explore not only the sites in Seattle but also the San Juan Islands and the Hoh Rain Forest in Olympic National Park. Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument is nearby. The Canadian cities of Vancouver and Victoria are not far away.

What Past Guests Are Saying

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Ballard

Left on 09/14/2013 for a stay in June 2013 | Lois & Gerry

We thoroughly enjoyed our month in your Ballard abode. Your condo is even nicer than the internet pictures. Don't get the warm, invited feeling through the pictures. Thanks for the thoughtful details, especially your basket of brochures explaining things to do in and around the Seattle area and for your binder with info related to the condo and appliances. Love the Ballard location! The walking was easy (unlike the "straight up" streets in the Queen anne area). We explored the Ballard Locks, the Marina area, the Golden Garden Park, the Woodland Zoo as well as the Market & Ballard Street shops, restaurants and the wonderful assortment of flowers that grow everywhere in Ballard. We even used the D-Line bus so that we did not have to drive to Pikes Place Market. The bus was the way to travel within the city - inexpensive, timely & no parking fee once we got there. Actually, we never took our car out of your garage except when we went out of town to Bothell, Vancouver, Snohomish, etc. Thanks again for the use of your lovely condo. We are already looking forward to next Summer's trip to Seattle.

Clean, comfortable, great location

This home is an easy walk to central Ballard and close to bus lines to downtown Seattle. My reason for picking this home was for location and it was just what I needed. The home appears to be fairly new and is nicely decorated. The space is clean, comfortable and well supplied with all the necessities of daily living. It sleeps three but that means one person sleeps on a small sleeper sofa in the living room. The owner was very helpful and kept in contact by email or phone. Parking in this area of Ballard is a problem and so it is nice that the home has a garage. However, in order to use the garage one must have a fairly small car as the garage approach is at a difficult angle.
